Rock Golem

Mime

Hello.

This is a rock sculpt that got out of hand :poly142:

Its based on Leonid Enin amazing work. link
I wanted to create a reasonably handsome rock and before i knew it, i started creating this guy from it. I found the concept mentioned above and decided to take it in that general direction. I then experimented with creating the palm trees and grass in zbrush.

Specs:

The rock golem sits at about 7.5 k triangles with 2k diffuse/spec/normal.
The tree is about 1.3 k triangles.




Comments and feedback is welcome and if anyone has any questions i'll be glad to reply. Thanks.

The rock texture could us some work; at the moment, it looks like a solid color. Consider shifting the base color to more of a red/brown or even pink shade to give greater contrast to the sand.

The sand pouring down is nice, but it really should have a source; the stream on his right arm really appears out of nowhere.

The plants all appear to be straight up; they should be oriented so they grew straight up when he was in the ground

Thanks for the kind words everyone.

@ DWalker: I made some changes based on your suggestions and enhanced the texture a bit. But if i re-position the grass it starts to look like hair..

is this better ?

Hey Mime,

Nice work done on this one. Love the sand flowing down from him, would look nice animated, flowing every now and then. Keep it up!

Awesome job!! The sand flowing off him adds a incredible touch.
